How does Helium 10 Alerts work?
Helium 10 Alerts is easy to use and plugs directly into your Amazon Seller Central account. Here’s how it rolls:
- Threat detection: It runs smart algorithms to spot all sorts of problems, like changes to your listings or random sellers crashing the party.
- Instant notifications: You’ll get alerts on your email or phone when stuff happens. No need to refresh your listings like a lunatic.
- Manage those threats: It gives you the tools to report weird activity, dispute hijacks and more.
- Fix and prevent: Helps you solve the issue and avoid dealing with the same headache again later.
And yep, just so you know, I’m not only a fan, I’m also a Helium 10 Seller Solutions Hub Partner, guest author on the Helium 10 blog and I’ve even popped up on their podcast. I’ve been using Alerts for ages and it’s saved me from more than one mess.
What does Alerts track?
You’ll get notified about pretty much any change to your listing. Real-time alerts, real-time panic control.
- Brand changed
- Bullet points changed
- Buy Box won/lost
- Category changed
- Description changed
- Dimensions changed
- Listing suppressed
- Main image changed
- New 1 to 5-star reviews
- New negative/neutral/positive seller feedback
- Number of sellers changed
- Price changed
- Alerts if Amazon or Amazon Warehouse wins the Buy Box
- Reorder or transfer status changed
- Title changed
Pro tip: If you're doing retail or online arbitrage and suddenly your listing title or brand changes, someone might be trying to merge ASINs or hijack your listing. Use Alerts to catch it quick and file a Brand Registry case with screenshots right away. Don’t wait, speed is key!
How to use Helium 10 Alerts

Helium 10 Alerts helps Amazon sellers protect their listings in real time. Once it’s linked to your Seller Central, it watches all the stuff that could mess up your account or eat into your margin.
It spots problems fast and lets you act before things blow up. Whether it’s a hijacker, a sneaky title change or a brutal 1-star review, you’ll know about it and be ready to hit back.
If you’re serious about selling on Amazon, this is one of those tools you need running 24/7. Like having a security camera on your catalog. And if you’ve been on Amazon long enough, you already know why that matters.
